PepsiCo, Inc. PEP today reported results for the second quarter of 2016.

"In what continues to be an incredibly volatile global macro environment, we are pleased with our results for the second quarter. While reported net revenue performance was negatively impacted by foreign exchange translation and the deconsolidation of our Venezuelan operations, we delivered balanced volume growth and positive price/mix driven by relentless execution of our commercial agenda and leading to solid organic revenue growth. At the same time, our focus on driving greater efficiency throughout our operations contributed significantly to attractive margin expansion while we continued to invest in our business," said Chairman and CEO Indra Nooyi. "Based on our year-to-date performance, we are raising our full-year core constant currency EPS growth objective."

Summary of Second Quarter Financial Performance:

Reported net revenue declined 3.3 percent. Foreign exchange translation had a 4-percentage-point unfavorable impact and the Venezuela deconsolidation had a 2.5-percentage-point unfavorable impact on reported net revenue. Organic revenue, which excludes the impacts of foreign exchange translation and structural changes, grew 3.3 percent.
Reported gross margin expanded 115 basis points, while reported operating margin expanded 105 basis points. Core gross margin expanded 75 basis points and core operating margin expanded 80 basis points. Reported and core margin expansion reflects the implementation of effective revenue management strategies and productivity gains, partially offset by a 50-basis-point increase in advertising and marketing expense as a percentage of sales.
Reported operating profit increased 2 percent and core constant currency operating profit increased 4 percent. The deconsolidation of our Venezuela operations had a 2.5-percentage-point unfavorable impact on both reported and core operating profit.
The reported and core effective tax rates were approximately 26 percent in 2016 and 2015.
Reported EPS was $1.38, a 4 percent increase from the prior year. Foreign exchange translation negatively impacted reported EPS by 3.5 percentage points.
Core EPS was $1.35, an increase of 2 percent. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange translation, core constant currency EPS increased 6 percent.
The deconsolidation of our Venezuelan operations had an unfavorable 3-percentage-point impact on both reported and core EPS.
Cash flow provided by operating activities was $2.8 billion.

Discussion of Second Quarter Division Results:
In addition to the net revenue performance as set out in the tables on pages 2 and A-6, reported operating results were driven by the following:

Frito-Lay North America (FLNA)
Positively affected by productivity gains and lower raw material costs, partially offset by impacts of operating cost inflation and higher advertising and marketing expense.

Quaker Foods North America (QFNA)
Positively affected by lower raw material costs, productivity gains and the impact of ceasing the operations of a dairy joint venture (5 percentage points), partially offset by the impact of higher advertising and marketing expense, operating cost inflation and unfavorable product mix.

North America Beverages (NAB)
Positively impacted by productivity gains, lower raw material costs, favorable settlements of promotional spending accruals and insurance adjustments, partially offset by operating cost inflation.

Latin America
Negatively impacted by operating cost inflation, the impact of the Venezuela deconsolidation (21 percentage points), higher raw material costs (in local currency terms, driven by a strong U.S. dollar), adverse foreign exchange translation (13 percentage points), restructuring and impairment charges and higher advertising and marketing expenses, partially offset by productivity gains.

Europe Sub-Saharan Africa (ESSA)
Negatively affected by higher raw material costs (in local currency terms, driven by a strong U.S. dollar), operating cost inflation, increases in advertising and marketing expenses and adverse foreign exchange translation (6 percentage points), partially offset by productivity gains.

Asia, Middle East and North Africa (AMENA)
Positively impacted by productivity gains and lower raw material costs, partially offset by operating cost inflation, increases in advertising and marketing expenses and adverse foreign exchange translation (4 percentage points).

2016 Guidance and Outlook

The Company provides guidance on a non-GAAP basis as the Company cannot predict certain elements which are included in reported GAAP results, including the impact of foreign exchange and commodity mark-to-market adjustments.

The Company expects:

Based on current foreign exchange market consensus rates, foreign exchange translation to negatively impact reported net revenue growth by 4 percentage points;
The 53rd week² to contribute approximately 1 percentage point to reported net revenue growth;
Approximately 4 percent organic revenue growth, excluding the impact of the 53rd week² and structural changes, including the deconsolidation of our Venezuelan operations;
2016 core earnings per share of $4.71, driven by the following expectations and factors:


2015 core earnings per share	$4.57
Expected core constant currency EPS growth (excluding Venezuela deconsolidation) - previously 8%	9%
Negative impact of Venezuela deconsolidation	(2)%
Negative impact of foreign currency translation³	(4)%
Expected 2016 core earnings per share	$4.71

In addition, the Company continues to expect:

Low-single-digit raw material inflation including the impact of transaction related foreign exchange, and low-single-digit deflation excluding the impact of transaction related foreign exchange;
The benefit of a 53rd week² will be reinvested in certain productivity and growth initiatives in 2016;
Productivity savings of approximately $1 billion;
Lower corporate unallocated expense, driven primarily by lower pension expense;
Higher net interest expense driven by higher debt balances;
A core effective tax rate approximately even with the 2015 full-year core effective tax rate;
Over $10 billion in cash flow from operating activities and more than $7 billion in free cash flow (excluding certain items);
Net capital spending of approximately $3 billion; and
To return a total of approximately $7 billion to shareholders through dividends of approximately $4 billion and share repurchases of approximately $3 billion.

²PepsiCo's fiscal year ends on the last Saturday of each December, resulting in an additional week of results every five or six years. PepsiCo's 2016 fiscal year includes 53 weeks of results.

³ Based on current foreign exchange market consensus rates.

Conference Call:

(a)

Reclassifications were made to prior years' amounts to conform to the current year presentation, including the presentation of certain functional support costs associated with the manufacturing
and production of our products within cost of sales. These costs were previously included in selling, general and administrative expenses. These reclassifications resulted in an increase in cost
of sales of $347 million and $354 million for the full years 2015 and 2014, respectively, with corresponding reductions to gross profit and selling, general and administrative expenses in the same
periods. The quarterly impact of these reclassifications increased cost of sales by $61 million, $84 million, $95 million and $107 million for the quarters ended March 21, 2015, June 13, 2015,
September 5, 2015 and December 26, 2015, respectively, with corresponding reductions to gross profit and selling, general and administrative expenses in the same periods. These
reclassifications reflect changes in how we are classifying costs of certain support functions as a result of ongoing productivity and efficiency initiatives. These reclassifications had no impact
on our consolidated net revenue, operating profit, net interest expense, provision for income taxes, net income or earnings per share.

Non-GAAP measures

In discussing financial results and guidance, the Company refers to division operating profit, core results, core constant currency results, free cash flow, free cash flow excluding certain items, and organic results which are not in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally to make operating and strategic decisions, including the preparation of our annual operating plan, evaluation of our overall business performance and as a factor in determining compensation for certain employees. We believe presenting non-GAAP financial measures provides additional information to facilitate comparison of our historical operating results and trends in our underlying operating results, and provides additional transparency on how we evaluate our business. We also believe presenting these measures allows investors to view our performance using the same measures that we use in evaluating our financial and business performance and trends.

We consider quantitative and qualitative factors in assessing whether to adjust for the impact of items that may be significant or that could affect an understanding of our ongoing financial and business performance or trends. Examples of items for which we may make adjustments include: amounts related to mark-to-market gains or losses (non-cash); gains or losses associated with mergers, acquisitions, divestitures and other structural changes; charges related to restructuring programs; asset impairments (non-cash); amounts related to the resolution of tax positions; pension and retiree medical related items; and remeasurements of net monetary assets. See below for a description of adjustments to our U.S. GAAP financial measures included herein.

Non-GAAP information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as or comparable to similar non-GAAP measures presented by other companies.

Glossary

PepsiCo uses the following definitions when referring to our non-GAAP financial measures, which may not be the same as or comparable to similar measures presented by other companies:

A - 13

Acquisitions and divestitures: All merger and acquisition activity, including the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and changes in ownership or control in consolidated subsidiaries and nonconsolidated equity investees.

Beverage volume: Volume shipped to retailers and independent distributors from both PepsiCo and our bottlers.

Constant currency: Financial results assuming constant foreign currency exchange rates used for translation based on the rates in effect for the comparable prior-year period. In order to compute our constant currency results, we multiply or divide, as appropriate, our current year U.S. dollar results by the current year average foreign exchange rates and then multiply or divide, as appropriate, those amounts by the prior year average foreign exchange rates.

Core: Core results are non-GAAP financial measures which exclude certain items from our historical results. For the periods presented, core results exclude the following items:

Commodity mark-to-market net impact: Change in market value for commodity contracts that we purchase to mitigate the volatility in costs of energy and raw materials that we consume. The market value is determined based on average prices on national exchanges and recently reported transactions in the marketplace.

In the 12 and 24 weeks ended June 11, 2016, we recognized $100 million and $146 million of mark-to-market net gains, respectively, on commodity hedges in corporate unallocated expenses. In the 12 and 24 weeks ended June 13, 2015, we recognized $39 million and $38 million of mark-to-market net gains, respectively, on commodity hedges in corporate unallocated expenses. In the year ended December 26, 2015, we recognized $11 million of mark-to-market net gains on commodity hedges in corporate unallocated expenses. We centrally manage commodity derivatives on behalf of our divisions. These commodity derivatives include agricultural products, metals and energy. Commodity derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment are marked to market each period with the resulting gains and losses recorded in corporate unallocated expenses as either cost of sales or selling, general and administrative expenses, depending on the underlying commodity. These gains and losses are subsequently reflected in division results when the divisions recognize the cost of the underlying commodity in operating profit.

Restructuring and impairment charges

2014 Multi-Year Productivity Plan

In the 12 and 24 weeks ended June 11, 2016, we incurred restructuring charges of $49 million and $79 million, respectively, in conjunction with the multi-year productivity plan we publicly announced in 2014 (2014 Productivity Plan). In the 12 and 24 weeks ended June 13, 2015, we incurred restructuring charges of $21 million and $51 million, respectively, in conjunction with our 2014 Productivity Plan. In the year ended December 26, 2015, we incurred restructuring charges of $169 million in conjunction with our 2014 Productivity Plan. The 2014 Productivity Plan includes the next generation of productivity initiatives that we believe will strengthen our food, snack and beverage businesses by: accelerating our investment in manufacturing automation; further optimizing our global manufacturing footprint, including closing certain manufacturing facilities; re-engineering our go-to-market systems in developed markets; expanding shared services; and implementing simplified organization structures to drive efficiency. The 2014 Productivity Plan is in addition to the productivity plan we began implementing in 2012 and is expected to continue the benefits of that plan.

2012 Multi-Year Productivity Plan

In the 12 and 24 weeks ended June 13, 2015, we incurred restructuring charges of $4 million and $10 million, respectively, in conjunction with the multi-year productivity plan we publicly announced in 2012 (2012 Productivity Plan). In the year ended December 26, 2015, we incurred restructuring charges of $61 million in conjunction with our 2012 Productivity Plan. The 2012 Productivity Plan included actions in every aspect of our business that we believed would strengthen our complementary food, snack and beverage businesses by: leveraging new technologies and processes across PepsiCo's operations, go-to-market and information systems; heightening the focus on best practice sharing across the globe; consolidating manufacturing, warehouse and sales facilities; and implementing simplified organization structures, with wider spans of control and fewer layers of management. The 2012 Productivity Plan has enhanced PepsiCo's cost-competitiveness and provided a source of funding for future brand-building and innovation initiatives.

Charge related to the transaction with Tingyi

In the 24 weeks ended June 11, 2016, we recorded a pre- and after-tax impairment charge of $373 million to reduce the value of our 5% indirect equity interest in Tingyi-Asahi Beverages Holding Co. Ltd. (TAB) to its estimated fair value.

In the year ended December 26, 2015, we recorded a charge of $73 million related to a write-off of the recorded value of a call option to increase our holding in TAB to 20%.

A - 14

Pension-related settlements

In the year ended December 26, 2015, we recorded pension-related settlement benefits of $67 million associated with the settlement of pension-related liabilities from previous acquisitions.

Venezuela impairment charges

In the year ended December 26, 2015, we recorded pre- and after-tax charges of $1.4 billion related to the impairment of investments in our wholly-owned Venezuelan subsidiaries and beverage joint venture.

Venezuela deconsolidation

Conditions in Venezuela, including restrictive exchange control regulations and lack of access to U.S. dollars through official currency exchange markets, have resulted in an other-than-temporary lack of exchangeability between the Venezuelan bolivar and the U.S. dollar. The exchange restrictions and other conditions have significantly impacted our ability to effectively manage our businesses in Venezuela, including limiting our ability to import certain raw materials and to settle U.S. dollar-denominated obligations, and have restricted our ability to realize the earnings generated out of our Venezuelan businesses. We expect these conditions will continue for the foreseeable future.

As a result of these factors, we concluded that, effective as of the end of the third quarter of 2015, we did not meet the accounting criteria for control over our wholly-owned Venezuelan subsidiaries and we no longer had significant influence over our beverage joint venture with our franchise bottler in Venezuela. Therefore, effective at the end of the third quarter of 2015, we deconsolidated our Venezuelan subsidiaries and began accounting for our investments in our Venezuelan subsidiaries and joint venture using the cost method of accounting. We reduced the value of the cost method investments to their estimated fair values, resulting in a full impairment. The factors that led to our conclusions at the end of the third quarter of 2015 continued to exist through the end of the second quarter of 2016.

Beginning with the fourth quarter of 2015, our financial results have not included the results of our Venezuelan businesses. We do not have any guarantees related to our Venezuelan entities, and our ongoing contractual commitments to our Venezuelan businesses are not material. We will recognize income from dividends and sales of inventory to our Venezuelan entities, which have not been and are not expected to be material, to the extent cash in U.S. dollars is received. We did not receive any cash in U.S. dollars from our Venezuelan entities during 2016. We will continue to monitor the conditions in Venezuela and their impact on our accounting and disclosures.

Tax benefit

In the year ended December 26, 2015, we recognized a non-cash tax benefit of $230 million associated with our agreement with the IRS resolving substantially all open matters related to the audits for taxable years 2010 through 2011, which reduced our reserve for uncertain tax positions for the tax years 2010 through 2011.

Division operating profit: The aggregation of the operating profit for each of our reportable segments, which excludes the impact of corporate unallocated expenses.

Effective net pricing: Reflects the year-over-year impact of discrete pricing actions, sales incentive activities and mix resulting from selling varying products in different package sizes and in different countries.

Free cash flow: Net cash provided by operating activities less capital spending, plus sales of property, plant and equipment. Since net capital spending is essential to our product innovation initiatives and maintaining our operational capabilities, we believe that it is a recurring and necessary use of cash. As such, we believe investors should also consider net capital spending when evaluating our cash from operating activities.

Free cash flow is used by us primarily for financing activities, including debt repayments, dividends and share repurchases. Free cash flow is not a measure of cash available for discretionary expenditures since we have certain non-discretionary obligations such as debt service that are not deducted from the measure.

Free cash flow excluding certain items: Free cash flow, excluding: (1) payments related to restructuring charges, (2) discretionary pension and retiree medical contributions, and (3) the tax impacts associated with each of these items, as applicable. As free cash flow excluding certain items is our primary measure used to monitor our cash flow performance, we believe this non-GAAP measure provides investors additional useful information when evaluating our cash from operating activities. See above for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure in accordance with GAAP (operating cash flow).

A - 15

Net capital spending: Capital spending less cash proceeds from sales of property, plant and equipment.

Organic: A measure that adjusts for impacts of foreign exchange translation as well as the impact from acquisitions, divestitures and other structural changes, including the Venezuela deconsolidation, for the comparable period. The Venezuela deconsolidation impact excludes the results of our Venezuelan businesses for 2015. This measure will also exclude the impact of the 53rd reporting week in 2016. We believe organic revenue provides useful information in evaluating the results of our business because it excludes items that we believe are not indicative of ongoing performance or that we believe impact comparability with the prior year.

Raw material costs: Raw materials include the principal ingredients we use in our beverage, food and snack products, our key packaging materials and energy costs.

2016 guidance

Our 2016 core tax rate guidance and our 2016 core constant currency EPS growth guidance exclude the commodity mark-to-market net impact included in corporate unallocated expenses and restructuring and impairment charges. Our 2016 organic revenue growth guidance excludes the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and other structural changes, including the Venezuela deconsolidation, and foreign exchange translation. Our 2016 organic revenue growth guidance also excludes the impact of a 53rd reporting week in 2016. Our 2016 core constant currency EPS growth guidance also excludes the impact of foreign exchange translation. We are not able to reconcile our full year projected 2016 core tax rate to our full year projected 2016 reported tax rate and our full year projected 2016 core constant currency EPS growth to our full year projected 2016 reported EPS growth because we are unable to predict the 2016 impact of foreign exchange or the mark-to-market net impact on commodity hedges due to the unpredictability of future changes in foreign exchange rates and commodity prices. We are also unable to reconcile our full year projected 2016 organic revenue growth to our full year projected 2016 reported net revenue growth because we are unable to predict the 2016 impact of foreign exchange due to the unpredictability of future changes in foreign exchange rates. Therefore, we are unable to provide a reconciliation of these measures.
